SYNOPSIS
  my $address1 = Email::Address::XS->new('Name1' => 'address1@host.com');
  my $address2 = Email::Address::XS->new("Name2 \N{U+263A}" => 'address2@host.com');

  my $list1 = Email::MIME::Header::AddressList->new($address1, $address2);

  $list1->append_groups('undisclosed-recipients' => []);

  $list1->first_address();
  # returns $address1

  $list1->groups();
  # returns (undef, [ $address1, $address2 ], 'undisclosed-recipients', [])

  $list1->as_string();
  # returns 'Name1 <address1@host.com>, "Name2 ☺" <address2@host.com>, undisclosed-recipients:;'

  $list1->as_mime_string();
  # returns 'Name1 <address1@host.com>, =?UTF-8?B?TmFtZTIg4pi6?= <address2@host.com>, undisclosed-recipients:;'

  my $list2 = Email::MIME::Header::AddressList->new_groups(Group => [ $address1, $address2 ]);

  $list2->append_addresses($address2);

  $list2->addresses();
  # returns ($address2, $address1, $address2)

  $list2->groups();
  # returns (undef, [ $address2 ], 'Group', [ $address1, $address2 ])

  my $list3 = Email::MIME::Header::AddressList->new_mime_groups('=?UTF-8?B?4pi6?=' => [ $mime_address ]);
  $list3->as_string();
  # returns '☺: "Name2 ☺" <address2@host.com>;'

  my $list6 = Email::MIME::Header::AddressList->from_mime_string('Name1 <address1@host.com>, =?UTF-8?B?TmFtZTIg4pi6?= <address2@host.com>, undisclosed-recipients:;');

DESCRIPTION
This module implements object representation for the list of the Email::Address::XS objects. It provides methods for RFC 2047 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2047> MIME encoding and decoding suitable for RFC 2822 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822> address-list structure.

  EXPORT
None

  Class Methods

new_empty
    Construct new empty "Email::MIME::Header::AddressList" object.

new Construct new "Email::MIME::Header::AddressList" object from list of Email::Address::XS objects.

new_groups
    Construct new "Email::MIME::Header::AddressList" object from named groups of Email::Address::XS objects.

new_mime_groups
    Like "new_groups" but in this method group names and objects properties are expected to be already MIME encoded, thus ASCII strings.

from_string
    Construct new "Email::MIME::Header::AddressList" object from input string arguments. Calls Email::Address::XS::parse_email_groups.

from_mime_string
    Like "from_string" but input string arguments are expected to be already MIME encoded.

  Object Methods

as_string
    Returns string representation of "Email::MIME::Header::AddressList" object. Calls Email::Address::XS::format_email_groups.

as_mime_string
    Like "as_string" but output string will be properly and unambiguously MIME encoded. MIME encoding is done before calling Email::Address::XS::format_email_groups.

first_address
    Returns first Email::Address::XS object.

addresses
    Returns list of all Email::Address::XS objects.

groups
    Like "addresses" but returns objects with named groups.

append_addresses
    Append Email::Address::XS objects.

append_groups
    Like "append_addresses" but arguments are pairs of name of group and array reference of Email::Address::XS objects.

NAME
